Comments

In 2022, the U.S. Mint released the National Purple Heart Hall of Honor Silver Dollar as part of the National Purple Heart Hall of Honor Commemorative Coin Program. It honors the National Purple Heart Hall of Honor, an institution that commemorates the extraordinary sacrifice of U.S. service members who have been awarded the Purple Heart. The Mint will also strike a $5 gold coin and a clad half dollar coin with different designs as part of the program.

On May 28, 1932, 136 World War I veterans became the first recipients of the Purple Heart. Since then, it has been awarded to an estimated 1.8 million servicemen and servicewomen. The Purple Heart is currently awarded to any member of the U.S. Armed Forces who has been wounded or killed by enemy action.
